We will hire others to work and we will meet there each evening to enjoy a pint, along with good food, stimulating conversation, music, fun and laughter. Ray wants Karaoke, and I want to be involved in designing and decorating the place. So friends, let's "build" our pub! |

I can scour the country for obscure but good quality acts to titillate and entertain. We need a good doorman too, any volunteers?? |

Dear Ruth and Diana, The thatched roof and the many fireplaces you want to install, could mean that our dream may all go up in smoke! But Hay, wouldn't it be worth it! We could always charge people to watch the spectacle. |
